This is the entrance to Burg Wildenstein (a fortified spur castle, around 800 years old, in the south of Germany, the south of the Black Forest, used as a youth hostel today). It’s the only access, more or less even ground with the parking. Innocuous, you might think.
Still fairly harmless from this view. A bridge. The castle is situated on the edge of a steep hillside. So this is really the only access.
This is what it looks from below. And directly below.
It was a unassailable obstacle. The castle walls were never breached.
Except by fair maidens carrying beer.

Great photos, I love that split tower entry in the first one.
Thinking of the castle walls never having been breached, brings to mind the words “Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries”, I can’t think why…
